Polyanthus Narcissus. 
The Polyanthus varieties of Narcissus are not only beautiful but deliciously 
sweet scented, and of the easiest culture, suitable for window garden, conserva- 
tory or garden, very free fowering and continuing long in bloom. Their tall 
spikes of bloom bear from six to one dozen flowers each. The pure white 
petals and gold cups of some varieties, the yellow with deep orange cups of others 
and the self whites and yellows render them great favorites. They are not quite 
so hardy as the other types of Narcissus and therefore should be carefully pro- 
tected in cold climates when grown in the garden. South of the freezing belt 
they are splendid for gardens and “ naturalize’”’ well.

Paper White ‘“‘ Grandiflora ’’ or Large Flowering. This large 
flowering type is such an improvement over the ordinary) 
“ Paper White ’’ that we have discontinued offering the 
latter. The ‘Large Fiowering’’ is more vigorous and 
earlier, producing purest snow white flowers of large size 
and good substance in large trusses. It is perhaps more 
largely used for early forcing for cut flowers than any other| 
kind of bulb, being brought in without difficulty by 
Christmas, and if required even much earlier. If buyer

“TI never saw anything as beautiful _as the flowers from your ‘ Paper White’ 
Narcissus Bulbs I got from you last November; one stalk had 13 flowers on.” 
Mrs. MARY M. BELL ENGLEMAN, Danville, Ky. 
CHINESE SACRED NARCISSUS. 
The * Shui Sin Far’’ or Water Fairy Flower, Joss Flower or Flower of the 
Gods, etc., it is called by the Celestials, is a variety of Narcissus, bearing in 
lavish profusion chaste flowers of silvery-white, with golden-yellow cups. They 
are of exquisite beauty and entrancing perfume. It is grown by the Chinese, 
according to their ancient customs, to herald the advent of their new year and 
as asymbol of good luck. 
The bulbs are grown by a method known to themselves, whereby they attain 
great size and vitality, ensuring luxuriant growth and immense spikes of flowers; 
in fact, the incredibly short time required to bring bulbs into bloom (four to 
six weeks after planting) is one of the wonders of nature. * You can almost 
see them grow,” succeeding almost everywhere and with everybody. They do 
well in pots of earth, but are more novel and beautiful grown in shallow bowls 
of water, with enough fancy pebbles to prevent them from toppling over when 
in bloom. A dozen bulbs started at intervals will give a succession of flowers 
throughout the winter. (See cut.) Price, large true China-grown bulbs, de- 
livered free in U. S., 12c. each; $1.25 per doz.; $10.00 per 100. 
“ The Chinese Lily Bulbs I got of you a few weeks ago are one mass of blossoms, 
and are greatly admired.” FRANK W. HILLS, Hoosick Falls, N. Y.
